      The BAD_RCPT_THROTTLE options is probably the most effective
      here. Here's a
      quick sendmail.mc fragment for it:

      #after 15 invalid recipients, start slowing them down with
      #1 second sleeps
      define(`confBAD_RCPT_THROTTLE',15)


But the gateway doesn't know if the recipient is valid or not, only if it
can deliver it to the next server. Do you mean together with
milter-sender or similar?
